Much quicker than the others to put on.  I can install 1,000 droppers in a couple of hours all up.  They’re really good to use and there is no problem with them shifting.  The others cripple much more easily … in fact I don’t think I have ever seen a Lightning cripple … the others (V-Type) just don’t seem as ‘steely’ – they’re softer than Lightning.
